In the latest JACC offering from EuroPCR, JACC Associate Editor Celina M. Yong, MD, FACC, interviews Dr. Ashkan Eftekhari, PhD, to discuss insights into his study, Biolimus-Eluting Biomatrix Stent Versus a Dual-Therapy Sirolimus-Eluting Stent in PCI: SORT OUT XI Randomized Trial. The biolimus A9-eluting BioMatrix Alpha stent (BES), has not been compared with another contemporary drug eluting stent. This study compared one-year target lesion failure (TLF) in BES versus the dual-therapy sirolimus-eluting Combo stent (DTS) in an all-comer population undergoing PCI. A total of 3,136 patients were randomized 1:1 to either BES or DTS. The primary result showed that BES was non-inferior to DTS. Additionally, there was a significantly higher rate of definite stent thrombosis in the BES arm. In conclusion, BES was non-inferior to DTS at one-year follow-up with respect to the primary endpoint, TLF.
